Exactly, that was my point:

 the 6to4 address 2002:ac8:5ac5:0:b0:46d:fd08:7c9f actually means that the 
originator is 10.200.90.197 (ac8:5ac5).

Being a private address I don’t think it is valid as a 6to4 address source, 
because they are meant for public IPv4 addresses:

   The document defines a method for assigning an interim unique IPv6
   address prefix to any site that currently has at least one globally
   unique IPv4 address, and specifies an encapsulation mechanism for
   transmitting IPv6 packets using such a prefix over the global IPv4
   network.

It seems to me is generated by IONOS/Kundenserver. It looks to me like they are 
using internal email servers for customers and instead of properly configuring 
IPv6, they allow 6to4 addresses to be generated or may be they do it on 
purpose. The interesting thing is that afterwards they send the email via IPv4 
only!

So either you configure IPv6 properly all the way thru, or not at all, but this 
way using an invalid 6to4 address is very weird and definitively not a good 
practice. May be someone has contact with them so they realize this is broken.
